Bus 16 from airport to center (€2.35, 20 min). Taxi/Uber €10-15 (5 min). Airport is very close to city. Free shuttle to some hotels.
Worth staying! Often overlooked for beach resorts. Beautiful old town, Ria Formosa lagoon, local atmosphere, great food. Perfect base for Algarve without resort prices.
Travel Tips
Useful tips for visiting Faro
Take ferry to Ilha Deserta (Desert Island) - pristine beach, excellent seafood restaurant Estaminé.
Faro is gateway to eastern Algarve (Tavira, Olhão) - less touristy than western (Lagos, Albufeira).
